Chapter 164: Immortals above the realm of Lianxu Hedao?
Xuan country?
Meng Bai thought to himself: Sure enough, something happened in Qingcheng. I realized that it is very likely that it happened in Qingcheng.
However, Meng Bai did not come to Qingcheng for Fang Zhi. He came here simply to have fun.
When he arrived at the restaurant, Meng Bai called the waiter and ordered a table full of good wine and delicious food.
Although Qingcheng changed its owner, the lives of the people in the city did not change much, and the restaurants were still bustling with people.
On the contrary, after Xuan State took charge, many of Qingcheng's policies that exploited civilians were abolished, and people's lives became slightly better.
While eating, Meng Bai overheard the conversation between the diners in the restaurant.
"Have you heard? Our Qingcheng has a new owner?"
"I heard at 7:00 am that the old city lord of our Qingcheng was killed. I even heard a loud noise in the city lord's mansion last night!"
"I heard that the new city lord is from Yucheng?"
"What new city lord? This time is different. The Fang family who came here this time knew that they wanted to establish a dynasty with Qingcheng as the capital."
"I heard that the newly established dynasty is called Xuan Dynasty."
Someone exclaimed: "Doesn't that mean we are completely going against Yu Dynasty?"
"Isn't this a rebellion?"
"You just realized that it's a rebellion. I've long been dissatisfied with the rulers of Yu Dynasty. I heard that the Fang family is recruiting troops. This time I want to join the army."
"..."
Meng Bai, who was having a meal nearby, thought to himself: It is indeed Fang Zhi.
......
Qingcheng, at the city gate.
Qingcheng had just been captured and the Xuan Dynasty had just been established, so many things were still imperfect, so Fang Zhi personally patrolled everywhere.
The soldier guarding the city was about to salute when he saw Fang Zhi but was interrupted by Fang Zhi.
"No need to be polite."
Fang Zhi then picked up the registration paper and started to look at it.
He accidentally saw the words "Zhiyun Temple Meng Bai".
Fang Zhi's expression changed and he pointed at Meng Bai's name and asked, "Is this person a Taoist priest in green?"
The soldier guarding the city recalled briefly and replied, "Sir, I have a vague impression that it was a Taoist priest in green."
Fang Zhi's expression brightened with joy and he said to the attendant beside him, "Quickly notify the people in the city to find this Taoist priest."
......
After Meng Bai had eaten and drunk his fill, he left the restaurant and went to the brothel.
Listening to the dancers' music and drinking the best tea, I felt extremely relaxed.
At this moment, a joyful voice sounded in Meng Bai's ears.
"Master, I didn't expect that we would meet in Qingcheng."
Fang Zhi came over with two followers.
Seeing this, Meng Bai waved away the dancer who was playing the instrument.
"Hey~ My good mood is gone once you come here."
Before Fang Zhi could say anything, his attendant beside him shouted, "How dare you speak to the Lord like that?"
Fang Zhi stopped it immediately.
"Li Long must not be rude to the Taoist priest."
"My followers don't know you, Taoist priest. Please forgive me!"
Then Fang Zhi waved the two men away and asked them to wait outside the room.
Meng Bai said jokingly, "You have established the Xuan Dynasty, why don't they call you the emperor?"
Fang Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "Please don't laugh at me, Taoist priest. How can I be called an emperor when I only control a city?"
"Even the name of the Xuan Dynasty was a temporary idea because we couldn't defeat the noble families."
"I just know that I came here this time to thank the Taoist priest for saving my life."
"Secondly, I would like to ask the Taoist priest to join my Xuan Dynasty and help Fang Zhi. I will reward you handsomely after Fang Zhi overthrows the Yu Dynasty."
Meng Bai waved his hand and said, "Stop it. I have received your thanks. As for joining Xuan Dynasty, let's forget about it. I am used to being lazy and have no interest in it."
"Master Taoist, the Yu Dynasty is without justice and the people of the world are living in misery. Now is the time when people like you are needed to stand up." Fang Zhi continued.
Meng Bai sighed slightly: "That's why I said I had no interest in listening to music after seeing you. I knew you were going to tell me this."
"Forget it. I will give you a jade slip. If Xuan Chao is in trouble in the future, you can crush the jade slip and I will come to help you."
"As for other matters, don't bother me anymore."
After leaving the jade slip, Meng Bai used magic to leave the room.
Fang Zhi looked at the jade slip left on the table and sighed: "What a pity! If Taoist Master Meng had joined, Xuan Dynasty would have been unstoppable."
There are indeed many masters of refining the void and combining the Dao in the Xuan Dynasty today, but none of them is as powerful as Meng Bai.
Meng Bai came to the street and shook his head and sighed: "It seems that Qingcheng is not a place for me to stay for a long time. It is better for me to slip away first."
......
Time flies, and three years passed in the blink of an eye.
Over the past three years, the army of the Yu Dynasty has suffered successive defeats, and the Xuan Dynasty has already occupied most of the cities of the Yu Dynasty.
Fang Zhi also officially ascended the throne and called himself Xuan Huang.
But all this has nothing to do with Meng Bai.
Over the past three years, he traveled around the country, and in addition to eating, drinking and enjoying himself, he also visited many famous sects built in the mountains.
During this period, he exchanged ideas with many Qi-refining masters who had achieved the state of Lianxu Hedao, which gave him many insights.
Although a method to advance to the level of Lianxu Hedao has not yet been found, a clue has been found.
A year ago, according to the records in the book collection of a major sect, the next realm after refining the void and merging the Dao was called Immortal!
Meng Bai's first reaction after seeing it was that this was similar to the name used in the ancient times in the world of immortal cultivation.
According to ancient records, if you want to become an immortal, you must look for clues in the Nirvana Tribulation.
The calamity of nirvana is a calamity unique to Qigong practitioners who have achieved the state of refining emptiness and merging with the Tao.
Starting from the age of 500, Qi Refiners will have to go through a calamity of extinction every hundred years.
And each disaster is more difficult than the previous one.
But after crossing it, his own magic power will greatly increase.
This is also the reason why Gui Suanzi was so arrogant when he first met Meng Bai.
He has survived five calamities of extinction, and the magic power in his body is dozens of times greater than that of an ordinary cultivator.
According to ancient records, 30,000 years ago, there was a fairy named Hongchou who survived the sixth calamity of extinction and became an immortal, turning into a rainbow and ascending to heaven.
When Meng Bai first saw this record, his brows furrowed.
If there is hope of surviving the first five catastrophes of extinction, then the sixth one will be a sure death.
Because when the sixth calamity of extinction comes, it is also the day when one’s life span ends.
However, Meng Bai is not even two hundred years old now, and has not yet survived a calamity of extinction. Meng Bai can only write this matter down and study it slowly in the future.
......
In a small fishing village.
Meng Bai accidentally traveled here after leaving the big sect. Here he met a Qi-refining master who had mastered the Dao of Lianxu.
This man lived in seclusion in a fishing village, and everyone called him Old Man Hai.
Meng Bai and Old Man Hai became familiar with each other after a few interactions.
On this day, Meng Bai was looking at the sea, drinking tea and enjoying the breeze in his own yard.
The old man Hai's voice came from outside the courtyard: "Is Meng at home?"
